Actor James Norton says children who are keen on the arts should be 'supported'.

But on the News Agents podcast, Norton, who grew up in North Yorkshire, said to give children the opportunity to thrive in the arts, the subjects needed to be nurtured early on.

"The most important thing is school, I guess, making sure they are supported and there are outreach programmes from centres of excellence in London and then in other big cities, and they get out to those schools and introduce kids to theatre at an early age so there's an awareness.

"I went to the Stephen Joseph Theatre in Scarborough for work experience one summer. So there was stuff there, it was just about finding it and making sure kids know it's there." The actor said the UK had a strong arts and cultural legacy and shows such as Happy Valley had contributed to putting the country on the world stage.
